How is earth’s magnetic field created.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Licemer1 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Our planet's magnetic field is believed to be generated deep down in the Earth's core. The Coriolis force, resulting from the Earth's spin, also causes swirling whirlpools. This flow of liquid iron generates electric currents, which in turn produce magnetic fields.

Hope this helps!

Carbon diselenide (CSe2) is a liquid at room temperature. The normal boiling point is 125°C, and the melting point is –45.5°C. C
Tema [17]

Answer:

Explanation:  The strengths of the inter molecular forces varies as follows -

        CO_{2}< CS_{2} < CSe_{2}

The normal boiling point of CSe2 is 125°C and that of CS2 is 116°C, which explains the trend that as we move down the group, the boiling point of e compound increases as the size increases.

This usually happens because larger and heavier atoms have a tendency to exhibit greater inter molecular strengths due to the increase in size . As the size increases, the valence shell electrons move far away from the nucleus, thus has a greater tendency to attract the temporary dipoles.

And larger the inter molecular forces, more tightly the electrons will be held to each other and thus more thermal energy would be required to break the bonds between them.

How long does it take the sun to melt a block of ice at 0∘c with a flat horizontal area 1.0 m2 and thickness 1.8 cm ? assume tha
VLD [36.1K]
This is a problem involving heat transfer through radiation. The solution to this problem would be to use the formula for heat flux.

ΔQ/Δt = (1000 W/m²)∈Acosθ

A is the total surface area:
A = (1 m²) + 4(1.8 cm)(1m/100 cm)(√(1 m²))
A = 1.072 m²

ΔQ is the heat of melting ice.
ΔQ = mΔHfus
Let's find its mass knowing that the density of ice is 916.7 kg/m³.
ΔQ = (916.7 kg/m³)(1 m²)(1.8 cm)(1m/100 cm)(<span>333,550 J/kg)
</span>ΔQ = 5,503,780 J

5,503,780 J/Δt = (1000 W/m²)(0.05)(1.072 m²)(cos 33°)
<em>Δt = 122,434.691 s or 34 hours</em>

What happens when magnesium reacts with iodine to make magnesium iodide?
I am Lyosha [343]

Explanation:

Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. On the other hand, atomic number of iodine is 53 and its electronic configuration is [Kr]4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{5}.

Hence, there are 7 valence electrons in an iodine atom and there are 2 valence electrons in a magnesium atom.

So, one atom of iodine requires one electron from a donor atom to complete its octet. But one magnesium atom contains two valence electrons.

Therefore, one magnesium atom will combine with two iodine atoms to result in the formation of magnesium iodide as follows.  

            Mg^{2+} + 2I^{-} \rightarrow MgI_{2}

Therefore, an ionic bond will be formed when  magnesium reacts with iodine to make magnesium iodide.
